Description
This is a practical handbook for all those who wish to offer high quality learning opportunities to adults with learning difficulties. It stresses the quality of provision throughout, and is illustrated by many examples of good practice from all areas of curiculum and delivery. The importance of the widest possible range of learning opportunities is also emphasized, and providers are urged to go beyond the limited menu of basic and social skills. For toolong education has been a process "done to" rather than with this group of learners. This book advocates a learner-centred approach based on choice and decision-making by people with learning difficulties.
